The Purest Benoni Repertoire Available
Broken Down with the Most Expert Instruction


This Benoni Repertoire is not only a full course against 1.d4, but it packs the bold, attacking flavor of the Benoni in every single line.

The beauty of Grandmaster Àlvar Alonso’s repertoire is its simplicity.

In the Benoni, whether it’s White’s most testing line (the f-pawn push) or the most tamed, your ideas are clear-cut: exchange on d5, castle quickly, try to exchange a couple of pieces, and then push the queenside aided by the power of your fianchettoed dark-squared bishop.

Against the sidelines, like the London System, you’ll hit the center with the 2..c5 push and seek unbalanced play through the dark squares, in the spirit of the Benoni anyway.

The Initial Setup


Inside are crystal-clear explanations with move-by-move annotation. GM Alonso shows you the overarching ideas in fine detail, so you never rely on just rote move memorization.

You will be walked through all ideas so you get it and feel it, that’s Alonso’s style.

Make no mistake, this a dynamic repertoire. It’s the one that took Alonso from his very first rating all the way up to 2500 and it follows a take-no-prisoners approach, which will shine against anyone who dares to play cautiously.

You’ll play nothing but pure, bold Benoni, in which you:

💡 Hunker down and do not fear the kingside pawn push in White’s most challenging line (7.f4) – true to the spirit of this repertoire, you keep on with your best Benoni and queenside ambitions.

💡Seek your usual queenside pawn expansion at ease when White goes for the trying 6.Nf3, 7.Bf4 & 8.e4 .

💡Get three distinct plans of action against the London – depending on what White does, you can go for the bishop pair, chase a pesky c4 knight away with your usual b5 or get some interesting central piece placement.

💡 Employ a Fianchetto system against the Jobava London – innovative, challenging, and sure to rock the world of any Jobava player.


But, you’ll also enjoy from different move-order possibilities. Want to avoid a certain line? Give White a headache choosing from several positions you’re all comfortable with? Play with their repertoire holes by jumping to the Benoni from a different opening?

You’ll learn how to make use of these “Benoni player tricks” with even three alternative chapters dedicated to the Delayed Benonis. So you’re feeling like a fish in the water in every Benoni position. From your first game to master level and beyond.

Àlvar Alonso is one of Spain’s top players, currently in a quest to get to 2600 for the first time in his career.

This is his second course in English. His first, on the Catalan, was very well received due to his unique ideas-based approach to teaching. He’s got a knack for distilling complex ideas in a digestible manner, so you’re never memorizing, but always feeling.
